Grant Wills Discusses NLRB And FTC Partnership and Its Effect on The Gig Economy

In an article published by Law360, Grant Wills shares his insight on the new partnership between the NLRB and FTC that aims to combat unfair practices in the gig economy and tackle issues such as worker misclassification and non compete agreements.

Grant believes the partnership is a "clear message" that the two agencies are going to be carefully examining the gig economy business model as it becomes increasingly popular. He suggests that this partnership will lead to an increase in enforcement actions at the NLRB and the FTC. Therefore, Grant urges employers to examine their business models and recommends that antitrust and traditional labor attorneys cooperate more when advising clients on worker classification matters.
